title: Blind ending branch of duplicate ureter associated with urolithiasis of contra-lateral kidney: case report and review of literature.
abstract: We report a case of a blind-ending branch of a duplicated ureter associated with obstruction and urolithiasis of the contra-lateral kidney. To our knowledge, this is the first report of such association. Review of the literature indicated that the former part of the association has been reported previously, although infrequently.
